    Today what we did today in class was get our literature books and a plot map worksheet. We read the Land Lady and we used the plot map worksheet for the story. What we had to do for the plot map worksheet was demonstrate the parts of plot with the details from Land Lady....the parts aree xpositoin, a rising actoin, climax, falling actoin, and a resolutoin to figure out what happened in the story. We read the story in class and then we do the plot map. For homework we have to do CTRW "complete the right word in our vocab book for tomarrow and we have to have the plot maps for thursday. At the end of class we collect the books.  Tomorrow meet in the computer lab.

6th Hour
We also talked about foreshadowing being where the author builds in clues within a story.  Tomorrow, in the computer lab we will continue pre-reading activities for The Giver.  We will be examining the difference between dystopia and utopia and map them out on a Venn Diagram.
